'''''Bigger and Blackerer''''' is a 2010 [[album]] and [[DVD]] by [[United States|American]] [[stand-up comedy|stand-up comedian]] [[David Cross]]. The album's title plays on [[Chris Rock]]'s comedy album, ''[[Bigger & Blacker]]'', and the cover plays off of the popular art form of painting on black velvet, such as [[Velvet Elvis]] (and is reminiscent of the [[Ray Charles]] album ''[[Ray Charles Greatest Hits]]''). Cross taped and recorded the album during two shows at the [[Wilbur Theatre]] in [[Boston]].
